Imagine some Rangers supporters saying you are not a Rangers supporter because of a Political belief ?

 I don't believe anti rangersness is an SNP policy but there are quite a number of zoomers in its ranks for whom it is and that is a very good reason to fight them.

I fundamentally disagree with this- I believe it is completely calculated and deliberate. Prior to 2014 most opinion polls showed roughly 30% of Scots were strongly in favour of retaining the status quo (ie the Union), around 30% were strongly in favour of Independence, and the remaining 40% were almost indifferent, but if they did vote, they were likely to vote for what they knew- mainly the status quo. As we have seen on many elections since- primarily the last two US presidential elections and the Brexit vote, both sides of the indy debate deployed very negative tactics. To convince the 40% to vote for indy, the SNP decided to show what bad people  those voting No were. They needed a ‘demon’ to rally against. They calculated that there were little gains to be had form either the majority of Rangers supporters or indeed the OO, so they made them the baddies. The simple message being, if you vote no, you are like these sectarian, racists, terrible people. To a certain extent it worked- they made massive gains from traditional (mainly catholic) labour voters, but also gains from more conservative (with a small c) traditional Protestants who both believed the propaganda  and  didn’t want to be associated with what was being portrayed.

I have been a Rangers supporter for 63 years longer than a lot on here have been alive albeit from the other side of the World for most of it.

I cannot believe some of the vitriol aimed at posters who don't happen to vote for a certain party. These people are Rangers supporters whether you like it or not and yes I read some of the media from Scotland that seek to implicate Rangers in everything evil in the World but I choose to ignore them and get on with it.

I remember when Rangers had a protestant only signing policy, I also remember a certain player of ours being hounded out of the club because his wife was a catholic and don't try and tell me that was not the reason. Twisted and bitter wee men.

This is the 21st century and I'll bet some of you uber protestants have not set foot in a church for many a long year. We now have Catholics, protestants, Moslems, people of different skin colours and all different nationalities they are all Rangers players and as long as they wear that shirt I will support them.

The outrage on this site when Glen Kamara was racially abused by that moron last year was great but yet the same people slagging off people who vote for the SNP.

Rangers as a club promote " everyone anyone" nowhere do I see except if you vote SNP. You all need to have a good look at yourselves, small minded bigots akin to the nazi's of WW2.

Rant over and you can tell me to fuck off if you like. I will still be a Rangers man.

Stupid auld farts that are accusing others of being stuck in dark ages when just about every Rangers fan I know has moved on from the religious stuff. Cunts should take a closer look at their selfs and where their mindsets stuck at

I wish. This thread would probably make more sense to me. There's a full week to go before there is any proper football. It's going to be hell!

It's mental that a lot of SNP MPs would be so open about their hatred for Rangers and its supporters when they should be attempting to win votes in order to fulfill their ambitions of independence.

I voted for independence in 2014. But I would absolutely not be on board with proceeding to an independent Scotland under the control of the SNP. The party is filled with absolute roasters.

Maybe you're right, but this is important. I see so many folk on here who are outraged by sectarianism but call other supporters scum. They point to the failings of Scotland and its political parties but couldn't care less about the incompetent horror that politics and political opinion is South of the border. They are wedded to a notion of the Union as of its glory wasn't built on slavery, cruelty and exceptionalism. I live the union, but it needs radically reformed. For me Rangers is steeped in tradition, my tradition, but that tradition is not without its blemishes. I want Rangers to be a football club first and foremost. Its supporters can be everyone and anyone. Some good, some not so good. Our values are not that protestantism is superior. Who amongst us believes in God? It is about the values of equality, equity, fraternity, kindness and winning on a football pitch.

What a fucking clownshoe.

Try standing in front of some actual Rangers fans and spouting  this pish and see what happens.

Load of nationalist shite. And a last ditch effort used every time the SNPs failings are highlighted 

The SNP are ten times worse for Scotland than the Tories, the Tories are shite but if you can't see the damage the SNP have done to Scotland all while blaming it on the big bogeyman Tories then you're just brainwashed

These Dim Wits are living in the past , do these Idiots not realise a large percentage of the Scotland support in the travel club are Rangers .

 

 

The Scum supporters that say if you vote SNP , Labour / Tory Scum. 

 

 

 

FFS I wont vote for anyone , but i dislike some Arse that has never set foot at Ibrox like the OP Swagger .

 

 

 

This first part I would be interested to know what the stats for this in 2021 are and how many of these people are actually current match attending Rangers ST holders.

Rangers fans that I know personally who follow scotland are all part time Rangers fans attending the odd game here or there mostly when they get a freebie and are the type to come out with shite like “wee Griffs up front”  boys and lassies on the bus in the stands around me and ST holding mates generally don’t give two fucks about the SFA team anymore

There are far more votes to be won playing to the gallery of anti British republicans than there are trying to woo Rangers fans.

[Tiger Shaw 30,470]

Infact boy who used to work with us claims to be a Rangers supporter but I don’t think he’s ever attended Ibrox in his life, certainly not while I’ve known him. Goes to Scotland matches though just the other day one of my mates screen shot tweets from him and sent them to me. Tweets going on about occupied Afghanistan, brits out and pish about Tory rule and independence all along  side a Rangers crest avatar. Never a fucking Rangers fan in a million years imo but that’s the sort of cunts that make up these stats about Rangers support among the Tartan army
